I'm going to bite the bullet and buy myself at least a SS 4-2-1 manifold
tomorow.  Provided the insurance is not prohibative.

Basicly the main reason is the fact the &�*!($ &"!(&*&%$ supid (*&*&^ dule
pipe manifold gasket keeps on &^%$(^^*$ blowin, and I am getting fed up with
chainging the (*&�$�!"� thing every weak!

And I can't be bothered mucking about with exhast system alignment were it
was a recognised flaw that it blew if there was the slightest thing wrong
with the cooling or exhaust alignment.

Should I go for a full sports system as well for roughly 1/3 the price
again.

The options are manifolds:

Rimmer �135 + �4.38 adapter + ??? car needels or springs

Kipping �159 + ??? adapter + �14 for carb needels

Moss �146 + �2.35 adapter + ??? carb needels or springs

TRGB �135 + ??? adapter + ??? carb needels

TSSC 133.77 + ??? adapter + ??? carb needels

All include VAT

or

For Twin sports systems

TRGB �270
Kipping �318
Moss �336
Rimmer �300

Rimmer also do:
Large bore version of standard but with twin exit on side sweeping to back
for: �258
Large bore s/through exhaust slash to the right �293 or �334 for an extra
quite version of that.



What are people opinions of these exhausts?
